Obama’s FEMA will begin denying funds to people in states where governors don’t believe in their Global Warming hoax.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency is making it tougher for governors to deny man-made climate change. Starting next year, the agency will approve disaster-preparedness funds only for states whose governors approve hazard-mitigation plans that address climate change.
This may put several Republican governors who maintain that the Earth isn’t warming due to human activities, or prefer to take no action, in a political bind. Their position may block their states’ access to hundreds of millions of dollars in FEMA funds. In the last five years, the agency has awarded an average $1 billion a year in grants to states and territories for taking steps to mitigate the effects of disasters.
This is a really remarkable attempt to bully the states by the federal government. It’s not as if those people who will be struck by disasters will need less help because of whatever is in the head of their governor.
If only congressional Republicans knew how to wield the power of the purse the way Obama does, maybe we’d get something done around here.
